Michelle's blogging experience so far.

First of all I've never used a blog before and after figuring out that I had to be invited to join the group I was able to figure out how to post. I like the ideal of using a blog to communicate with my students and their parents outside of class on common topics of interest such as field trips, parent volunteers, and general information. I work with Life Skills students and I don't really see using the blog to much with them since they really struggle with reading, writing, and typing. Most of my students are at a Kinder level and like Amanda said it would be tough to really use a blog format with them themselves. However, I think it would be great to use with my fellow co-workers to keep everyone informed. We could also use the blog to get ideas on lesson plans and work on lessons together. I think blogging will create lots of new ways to teach and be used in the classroom. I'm looking forward to learning more as this class moves forward.
